So, I have a box of old ephemera found when cleaning out some things my grandparents had.
No family items, but it is a large amount of stuff from 1909-1911. Mainly advertising and such.
I really don't need this much and some has some damage due to age/fragile papers. Planning to get rid of it, though thought I would see if anyone wants an envelope with a few pieces. Heck - there is even a large advertising flier/magazine for gravestones!
The dress maker one is interesting and I will use, same with some of the old envelopes. There is just more here than I will ever use.
Anyone want a few pieces? It is very fragile, so no promises it arrives in perfect shape, though I would put something around to hopefully protect.

After more in depth review, not much sewing related. Those two in the image are it. Lots of farm, seed catalogues and misc ads. Assortments heading out!
anyone into accounting? Two ad catalogues for courses in higher accountancy. Splitting one into pieces for all due to fun graphics

So, these are ready to mail, however, a question. I have allergies, I know this. When reading 100 +year old minute books they kicked in big time and I had to use gloves and a mask (pre-Covid).
after spending the weekend going through these pieces, allergies have kicked back up big time. I totally forgot about my reactions and didn’t wear gloves and mask.
Still willing to send (actually having friend make copies of pieces I wanted as I cannot work with these any longer and won’t be keeping them). Just want to be sure you know these old documents are truly old and if you have allergies, beautiful, but no fun now. Thinking it was reading the old newspapers that did it. Interesting and fun, love the photos but they are not staying.

Interesting and fun, love the photos but they are not staying. I'm sorry your RAK is causing you issues. I bought a whole lot of old business papers a couple years ago. Very musty. I keep it in a sealed tub and only open it when I need to use a piece. It doesn't bother me. Probably more of an impact for our allergy-ridden cat. Bring it on! And MANY THANKS!

No problem.
You all get more than I had planned since I am not keeping any of it (copies only). These packages have enjoyed riding in my car this week. I have been to the post office multiple times this week for work stuff and completely forgot I had a bag in the car to ship.
Oh boy do I need to remember things. Large sticky note on the GPS in my car now!
